Sometimes this happens here on ubuntu too. Quite annoying. Resizing does not always help. What I do then is CTRL+a and SHIFT+arrow-keys to move the contents of the patch. = Slow if its a big patch. Dividing your big patch into smaller subpatches is better I guess.

hi, one possibility is, to open the patch with a texteditor and edit the first line the 5 numbers are offset x/y, size x/y, fontsize. #N canvas 20 20 800 600 10; marius.

i feel your pain mate,
i have a mac, and sometimes i get other people's patches, and the bottom corner of the patch goes below the bottom of the screen and it is impossible to resize.
the workaround i use is to copy the entire patch into a new window and 'save as'
if there is a real solution, then i have never heard about it, but i have my doubts that it can be fixed with the current way pd is implemented.

Usually on Linux you can resize a window by dragging with Alt+Button3 (right button of mouse) but some window managers set it to Alt+Button2 instead (wheel button or thumb button) and some allow to reconfigure the "Alt" part to something else (e.g. Windows key or Menu key)
What do you mean, "resizing does not always help"?

well, may be if you wanna publish a patch - once for personal use don't need to fallow any guidelines i think :)

also on most of the window managers you can move center of the window , so some parts go out of sight, but in this way you can do whatever.
i don't understand why some WMs don't let you do this ??
what's going ..?? i remember that the aqua lets you have the bottom and both say away of the sight ('desktop boundary' if you wish) . can't you move the window like just have said?
